Servings: 1
Ingredients
- Espresso
- 1 shot (about 1 ounce)
- Whole milk
- 4 ounces
- Optional sweetener (sugar, honey, or flavored syrup)
- to taste
Instructions
- Begin by brewing a shot of espresso using your espresso machine. Use freshly ground coffee for the best flavor.
- While the espresso is brewing, pour the whole milk into a frothing pitcher.
- Steam the milk using a milk frother or steam wand until it reaches a velvety texture, ensuring you create microfoam. Aim for a temperature of about 150°F (65°C) for optimal sweetness without scalding the milk.
- Once the milk is steamed, pour the espresso shot into a pre-warmed cup.
- Hold back the foam with a spoon and pour the steamed milk over the espresso, allowing the microfoam to float on top.
- Gently stir the milk and espresso together to combine flavors, but be careful not to disturb the microfoam too much.
- If desired, add your choice of sweetener to taste, and serve immediately for the best experience.
